A low and shallow gasp came from the dying purple lightning wolf in the middle of the hall!
Shen Qinglan's ebony sword was stuck on its neck, and the owner of the sword was slumped on the gray stone slab.
Around Shen Qinglan, Nan Qing, Hu San and others were also bruised and breathing heavily.
Originally, the five of them had just arrived in a strange environment. Before they had time to see the surrounding scene clearly, they were startled by Shen Qinglan and two purple lightning wolves who appeared shortly after.
The third-level purple lightning wolf pinned Shen Qinglan under her and could bite her neck off in the next moment.
Nan Qing immediately raised her sword and came over to kill, followed by several others.
Fortunately, three of the six people were in the late stage of Qi refining, otherwise they would have to answer to a third-level monster beast that was equivalent to the foundation-building stage.
Six people fought hard against one demon, and in the end the human cultivator won with a slight advantage!
The little cub had already been thrown aside by Shen Qinglan and shivered.
"This is the first time I've killed a third-level monster. It's so fun!" Nan Qing ate a gold-cut fruit to heal her injuries, and then got up again with great effort.
"Me too."
"Likewise."
"It's really enjoyable!"
"Where is this?" Li Xinru finally asked the key point.
Except for a few pillars around it, there is only a huge statue in the middle.
A statue with a mighty face and red lips and eyes!
The statue is naked to the waist, with a pair of wings spread wide behind it, as if it is ready to fly at any time, its eyes are wide open, its face is black and its lips are red, and its two feet are tightly grasping the bulges on the base like the claws of a roc.
Holding a hammer less than a foot long in his right hand, he made a gesture of striking.
Nan Qing said firmly, "This is the statue of the God of Thunder."
"Thor?"
"There are records in the ancient books of our Nan family. I have seen them. The figure in the album is exactly the same as this one, and the hammer is Thor's hammer! Although the one on the statue is a stone hammer, the one recorded in the book is from ancient times. Made of black iron, but the shape is exactly the same."
When Shen Qinglan heard these four words, she took another look at the stone hammer. It did look like Thor's hammer. Although the God of Thunder she thought of was blond and blue-eyed, it was definitely not the same person as the Thunder God Nan Qing mentioned.
"Who set up a statue here? How did we get teleported here? Did the red light activate the teleportation array?"
"Why is there a teleportation array in the cave?"
Shen Qinglan found a pillar and sat against it, "I don't know, but those two wolves must know. Maybe we are not the first batch of monks to be forced in by them."
She rolled a white head next to the pillar. The skull rolled on the ground for several weeks before stopping.
There are indeed white bones of human beings scattered around, which are at least a few years old, and even more likely to be hundreds of thousands of years old.
Hu San also marveled, "No wonder the two wolves chose such a strange cave. It turns out there is a trump card in the cave!"
During the previous battle with Renxiu, other people must have been teleported from that location, and the two monsters took note of it as a means of saving their lives. "
"If I hadn't had the cubs in my hands, I would have probably come in at the same time as you. They had a good idea. After you were sent away, I would have been torn into pieces when I faced the two monsters alone. Only then can we relieve the hatred in their hearts!”
Li Xinru held the cub in her arms and stroked it, "Don't worry, it might be our chance."
In the long history of Tianyuan Continent, isn’t this how the fateful encounters that happened to the monks began?
Sun Dongcheng said in surprise, "Senior Sister Li is right."
Shen Qinglan and Nan Qing looked at each other and saw disgust in each other's eyes.
Both of them couldn't stand the way Sun Dongcheng flattered Li Xinru. On the surface, the two factions were friendly but on the inside, this was something that all the disciples knew.
Sun Dongcheng's behavior was quite embarrassing for Tongjian Sect.
Shen Qinglan suggested, "We don't know the details now. Everyone is injured, so let's heal our wounds and restore our spiritual energy first. Even if it's an opportunity, we have to take it."
Sun Dongcheng, who was still a little eager to look around, heard this and saw that the others did not get up, so he sat down again.
Everyone is full of energy, but he is still injured. Who else can die first besides him?
Although the treasure is good, it must be enjoyed with a life.
Shen Qinglan took out a few pieces of dried meat from the storage bag and put it into his mouth, and began to restore his spiritual energy.
While here, it is impossible for anyone to devote themselves wholeheartedly to cultivation, and their spiritual consciousness is always watching the movements in the hall.
She recovered quickly with the help of the food's aura, but she did not end her practice, she just paid attention to what others were doing.
Li Xinru was the first person to open his eyes. Seeing that everyone was still practicing, he picked up the cub and started to inspect the statue.
Shen Qinglan knew that this man did not recover quickly, but he had some reservations during the battle.
Everyone has reservations, but Li Xinru is so good at stealing tricks.
During the siege, he seemed to be flying around, but in fact he did not enter the attack range of the monster. Only when he was sure that the monster was entangled and could not hurt anyone else, Li Xinna would give an obvious blow.
The other party did it very covertly, and she wouldn't have been able to find it if she wasn't worried that Li Xinru would do something dirty to her.
"ah!"
Li Xinru's exclamation pulled everyone out of their cultivation state.
"What's wrong?!"
Nan Qing and Shen Qinglan looked at each other, "What's going on?"
Shen Qinglan shook his head, Li Xinru suddenly shouted out, nothing abnormal happened in the previous breath.
Li Xinru's voice was a little frightened, "That, that."
Nan Qing was impatient, "What is that? Say it quickly!"
Li Xinru's face showed displeasure, but she still said, "The eyes of the statue moved!"
"What!"
At this time, several people stood up and looked up at the statue.
Hu San was confused, "No."
Shen Qinglan withdrew her consciousness and said, "There is no spiritual energy on the statue. It looks like an ordinary statue."
"I really saw it."
Everyone was silent for a while, Li Xinru had no need to lie.
Nan Qing raised the sword, "Let me try it."
"No!" Several people objected!
Li Xinru, in particular, wanted to strike at Nan Qing first.
Nan Qing was helpless, "What should we do?"
Shen Qinglan held her back and said, "Senior Sister Nan, please be patient."
The group of people checked other places, but there was still nothing unusual, not a single weed growing around them.
He had to go back under the statue and circle around it, hoping to see something.
An hour later, Nan Qing raised her sword upward again, "I'm not looking for it anymore. I'll give it a try with my sword."
This time, no one objected.
Nan Qing jumped up lightly and swung her long sword towards the statue's face.
Wow.
The sword left a scratch on the statue, but nothing more.
Shen Qinglan frowned. There was no exit in this hall. Will they end up like the bones on the ground?
"Will everyone try it?"
Her proposal was quickly responded to, with various five-element spells attacking the statue and other places they thought were strange.
Only Li Xinru took a few steps back.
Unexpectedly, the walls of the main hall were impregnable, and no matter how hard they attacked, they could not find any clues to get out.
The day passed like this, and the group no longer thought about opportunities, they just wanted to get out alive.
One day, two days, three days!
The main hall is still safe, so safe that it makes people collapse!
Nothing unusual happened in three days, four pillars, a few walls, a statue and six people living together in harmony!
Shen Qinglan was sitting in a corner of the hall having breakfast, with porridge, meatloaf and her homemade side dishes in front of her.
After being trapped, she had time to eat three meals a day.
Nan Qing on the side also ate happily, muttering, "One meal is worth one meal."
Shen Qinglan put down the bowl helplessly, "Sister Nan Qing, I feel like I'm eating my head off when you're like this!"
"What is deprivation meal?"
"The last meal eaten by mortal criminals who are about to be beheaded."
Nan Qing held the bowl in one hand and chopsticks in the other and thought for a while, "You are wrong. We will starve to death here before we can be beheaded."
Shen Qinglan was speechless, but she had to agree with Nan Qing's words. Even she only brought a few months' worth of food.
If they still can't find a way out, starving to death is their final destination.
Thinking that she might starve to death, the meatloaf in her hand no longer tasted good.
"If I go and take a look again, I won't believe it. There are no clues to get out!"
She can accept being disabled, but she cannot accept starving to death!
You can't spend your whole life worrying about eating, right?
In this way, others had already given up searching and began to sit down and practice, waiting for a miracle to appear.
Shen Qinglan took his sword and struck every corner of the hall.
Then the second time, the third time.
A month passed like this.
The first one to collapse was Sun Dongcheng.
When he finished eating, he asked others for food, including Li Xinru, whom he thought he was close to.
The result is naturally nothing.
In desperation, he pointed the tip of his sword at Shen Qinglan.
"Junior Sister Shen, you and I are from the same sect, you won't refuse to save me even if you die, right?"
Shen Qinglan's lips curved up, "I can."
But there was a trace of anger in her heart. She had become a soft persimmon in the eyes of others.
If she doesn't deal with this guy today, more people will come to her in the future!
She does have food, but who knows when they will find the exit.
He stopped Nan Qing from taking action, "Sister Nan Qing, if I can't even defeat him, then there is no point in my existence."
Both of them were at the fifth level of Qi Refining. If they couldn't defeat Sun Dongcheng, it would only be a matter of time before they were robbed and killed.
The battle didn't last long, and Shen Qinglan's sword cut off Sun Dongcheng's arm.
The severed arm flew up and blood splattered everywhere.
Sun Dongcheng regretted it. He could live a few more days if he didn't eat today.
But if he offends Shen Qinglan, he is afraid that he will die today.
He began to back away and begged for mercy, "Junior sister Shen, I was obsessed with something strange for a moment. Please let me go. Even if I starve to death, I will never ask you for food again!"
"Do you think I will believe you? Besides, I am helping you. If you starve to death, it is better for me to give you a happy life and suffer less."
Sun Dongcheng's fear level reached its peak and he wanted to keep a distance from Shen Qinglan with the statue.
"Junior sister Shen, please, I would rather be eaten to death. You and I are from the same sect! The sect rules..."
He knew that it was impossible to persuade Shen Qinglan about this matter using the sect's rules. Looking at the indifferent people around him, he decided to blow himself up and take away those who were unwilling to help him.
But right here Shen Qinglan really stopped!
Is this Junior Sister Shen really afraid of sect rules?
Then he would naturally say a few more words, "Junior sister Shen, if you kill a fellow disciple, your cultivation will be revoked and you will be kicked out..."
"Shut up!" Shen Qinglan stared at the statue behind him.
The originally angry face turned around and stared directly at Shen Qinglan!
